Targeting Autophagic Pathways by Plant Natural Compounds in Cancer Treatment.

abstract：:The sphingomyelin (SM) pathway is an ubiquitous and evolutionarily conserved signaling system in which ceramide (CA), generated from SM by the action of various isoforms of sphingomyelinases (SMases) functions as an important second messenger. Recent evidence suggests that branching pathways of sphingolipid metabolism...
